the numbers are vital in producer price index (ppi) and consumer price index (cpi). the numbers are important for the financial world to make accurate decisions about our money. (more ours than theirs) taco has changed the way the data for those numbers are being collected. why? the most obvious reason is that he is greedy and wants more, more. more money. so control of some of the data that the fed uses to make it’s interest rate decisions is vital to making easy money. hence the governors of the fed are under fire from a weaponized administration. however, it is history that says the market will eventually pay attention to the reality of market manipulation and will react. today’s ppi tells me that the small business owner is taking the bullet from tariffs in order to keep prices low. that can’t last. the continually revised employment figures with it’s high numbers will be noted, in one fashion or another, as the fed relies also on it’s own data collection methods. for the consumer not to notice of the continually rising prices would be folly on their part and for the number to be “fudged” of the cpi it will be noticed more quickly than the other factors. the market will eventually recognize the manipulation of the data and react. a lot of factors bear on how we lose our money in these scenario.
